OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of Zhenqing Capsule (ZQC), a compound traditional Chinese herbal medicine, in treating type 1 diabetic rats with peripheral neuropathy. METHODS: Type 1 diabetes was induced by caudal vein injection of high-dose streptozotocin in 30 male Wistar rats. The thirty diabetic rats were randomly divided into three groups: ZQC-treated group, untreated group and aminoguanidine-treated group. Another group of 10 rats was taken as normal control. After 10-week treatment, the changes of body weight and fasting plasma glucose level were measured, and the serum MDA level and the changes of neurological electrophysiology were analyzed. The samples of sciatic nerve in diabetic rats were taken for morphological observation. RESULTS: The MDA level in type 1 diabetic rats was notably reduced in ZQC-treated group as compared with the untreated group (P<0.01). Compared with the untreated group, ZQC could improve the electrophysiology of sciatic nerve including conduction velocity (P<0.05), latency (P<0.01) and wave amplitude (P<0.05). The nerve myelin staining results showed that segmental demyelination of the nerve fibers in ZQC-treated group was not as serious as that in the untreated group. CONCLUSION: ZQC can obviously ameliorate the neurological electrophysiological function and the pathological changes of peripheral nerve in type 1 diabetic rats through the removal of free radical and resistance of lipid peroxidation.

Objective To observe the effect and safety of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancre-atography(ERCP)in pregnant patients with acute biliary pancreatitis(ABP). Methods Twenty-four ABP patients,14 mild and 10 severe cases combined with pregnancy,were hospitalized from Januaray 2002 to Januaray 2007. Besides conventional managements,emergency endoscopic nasobiliary drainage(ENBD) without monitor of X-ray was performed in all patients to decrease the pressure in bile duct. Once the condi- tion of the patients Was stabilized and the common bile duct stone was confirmed,secondary endoscopic retro- grade biliary drainage(ERBD)with stent was performed in patients at early and midtrimester pregnancy,while secondary ERCP was employed in late pregnant patients after pregnancy termination. Results All pa-tients safely went through emergency ENBD without complication,and 4 patients with ampulla incarceration accepted sphinectomy with needle knife and stones were removed successfully. Common bile duct stone was confirmed in 15 patients and 5 of them underwent ERBD,the other 10 accepted ERCP. No patient died or needed surgical intervention,and they were all discharged with complete remission. Fetus of two patient with severe ABP did not survive. Conclusion Emergency ENBD and secondary ERCP or ERBD are safe and ef-fective in management of pregnancy patient with ABP.

1263 patients with choledocholithiasis were treated with endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) from January 2005 to December 2008, with 1235 (97.8%) cases successfully treated. One-time ERCP removal of the stones was successful in 982 patients, with two times in 129 patients and three times in 124. 1130 patients (89. 5% ) underwent endoscopic nasal biliary drainage (ENBD) after the procedure. 56 patients with refractory stone were treated with intrabiliary plastic stent, among whom 42 were cured through endoscopic retrograde biliary drainage (ERBD) of 1 -3 times. Complications occurred in 29 patients (2. 3% ) with hemorrhage in 8 patients,acute pancreatitis in 17 and perforations in 4. Mortality rate was 0. We concluded that the majority cases of choledocholithiasis can be successfully treated by ERCP, while intrahepatic cholelithiasis and refractory common bile duct stone remained therapeutic challenges. It is also mandatory to evaluate long-term efficacy and complications of ERCP.

Objective To explore the strategies for diagnosis and treatment of anomalous junction of pancreaticobiliary duct (AJPBD) complicated by acute pancreatitis. Methods The clinical dataof 22 patients with abnormal pancreaticobiliary junction were analyzed retrospectively. Results The incidence of acute pancreatitis in this series was 31.8 % (7/22), thereinto, 5 cases(71.4%) in C-Ptype (the common bile duct joining the pancreatic duct) and 2(28.6%) in P-C type (the pancreatic duct joining the common bile duct). Seven patients underwent ERCP+ EST+ ENBD. Two patients with common bile duct stones were treated with stone basket and cholecystectomy was performed in two cases with gallstone. All patients were successfully treated. The follow-up for l year showed that there was no recurrence of pancreatitis. Conclusion Acute pancreatitis usually occurs in patients with AJPBD, especially in C-P type or with gallbladder stone or common bile duct stone. ERCP+EST+ENBD and prophylactic cholecystectomy are effective to prevent and treat acute pancreatitis.
